Swich Cafe, Publika, Solaris Dutamas, KL

Impressed with the food at Swich's outlet in HP Towers, we decided to visit their sister outlet during our last trip to Publika. With some help from the Information Counter, we managed to locate the outlet which is located in the walkway between two shops. Because of its location, I believe it is difficult for them to cook anything here hence a very small food menu but quite a good selection of cakes, which are what Swich is famed for.

Hubby ordered the More Mojo salad (RM15.90), which is labelled as Swich's speciality and is meant to include dried figs, pear, carrot, tomatoes, spiced walnuts on mesclun leaves with pomegranate vinaigrette. Not sure what pear they used, because it tasted (and looked) more like green apples to me. This is quite a tart and appetizing salad.

Another Swich speciality, the soft shell crab with salted egg pizza (RM11.90 per quarter). The topping was pretty nice, with a hint of curry aioli, but I found the pizza base too crunchy, almost biscuit-like.

Baby D picked the Valrhona chocolate cake (RM12.90), made from finest Grand Cru single origin Valrhona chocolate and it was moist, rich and decadent. The little one was supposed to share it with daddy but he ate almost all on his own :P So Hubby ended up ordering a chocolate truffle ball (RM3.90) for himself. I couldn't resist and ordered the Cempedak Tutti frutti (RM13), since I loved the cempedak sponge that I had the last time at their other outlet. They are similar except this one is frosted with cempedak cream. The desserts certainly made our visit here worthwhile.

Big boys love to shop here ;)

Mummy, what a strange looking man!

Verdict: Would recommend the cakes here at their Publika outlet but for food, visit the HP Towers outlet.
